RE: RE: [JDEV] yahoo issues anyone?Actually the Mach kernel came out of a research project at CMU (Carnegie Mellon University) not SMU, and as has already been said is not just for BSD but is used in a lot of other systems, but yes coming back to the main point Darwin is based on BSD/Mach just as FreeBSD is based on BSD but that still does not mean MacOSX is FreeBSD, its not.
Anyway I think thats enough of this argument ;), if anyone still wants to argue about this I suggest we take it off list or that you do some googling. Mach project website for anyone interested: http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/project/mach/public/www/mach.html http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs.cmu.edu/project/mach/public/www/overview.html Richard ----- Original Message ----- From: Lyn Bartram To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Friday, January 24, 2003 9:30 PM Subject: RE: RE: [JDEV] yahoo issues anyone? The Mach kernel, which came out of SMU, is a small computer version of the BSD kernel. So it may not be FreeBSD, but it essentially BSD ( as opposed to other flavours of Unix). --lyn (Unix ROCKS :) -----Original Message----- From: Richard Dobson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, January 24, 2003 1:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: RE: [JDEV] yahoo issues anyone? > On Thursday January 23, 2003 04:38, Marc Blank wrote: > > The three companies - Yahoo, AOL, and MSN - are the 800-pound gorillas > > of the internet.

Urm no actually its MacOSX which runs on Darwin which uses the Mach kernel, its not FreeBSD. _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev
